Ghost Signal: sounds like he's compensating for the loss of project 2
Brunov: I'm surprised they'd compare an MMO to the holy grail - that feels like setting up for disappointment. What's your vision for this thing anyway?
Noah: Marc Merrill seems like the perfect guy to spearhead something that sounds as bold as "the grail" – wonder if he's factored in the inevitable salt from LoL fans
Diazlucas: nice to see them pouring love into something that's not being cancelled every five minutes
Liam: can't say i'm surprised given the way 2xko just got nixed
Norakaur: sounds like he's banking everything on this one project now that 2xko is dead
Iris: sounds like they're doubling down on ambition with this MMO. given the... complicated history, I'm curious to see how they'll balance scale and polish
Hex Raven: it sounds like a sprawling mess so far. what can you say about the actual gameplay and world design at this point?
Elias: surprised he mentioned an MMO and not the reason people are actually talking about right now - that fighting game's sudden cancellation
🕊️ Guillaume Flores: not surprised they're hyping this new project so hard after the rug was pulled on 2XKO - what's the deal with their development process, anyway?
